the shower of eden???

greetings, friends. the hart's have returned to bloggerville and will now be typing from our new home (which we love!!!) i am sitting in my office, drinking some coffee and the children are playing in the basement. who knew such peace could exist? here is a quick story from this morning....

i was finishing up my shower and emma decided she wanted to get in. i hop out, she hops in. claire meanders in and also wants to take a shower. so in she goes with emma. emma clarifies that i will indeed still be in the bathroom "in case the water turns fire hot". yes, i say, i will be right here putting on some make-up. they begin to chatter together, pretending things, etc. i hear claire say, "mommy left the soap in here." my ears perk up (since i am only 2 steps away) because the girls have been known to dump out a whole bottle of hair wash in one shower. 2 gleeful girls start saying "fill up your cup!....it is a bubble land." i am starting to question their intelligence...wondering why they think that because they are in the shower, i cannot hear them. then i hear claire so, "oh..i soapeded up MY hair and now you have to do it too, emma. we both made this bubble land. here is your soap, rub it in your hair." to that my little adam (emma) replies.. "ok. but don't tell mom." brilliant children.
